Sparkling Medium Fine Cider
A Bottle Conditioned Cider made from the finest bittersweet apples of the 2024 season, including Yarlington Mill, Michelin, Frederick, and Dabinett apples; all of which contribute to its superb flavour. Fermentation is completed in the bottle, giving a great pop on opening. Expect a nose of yeast, funk, and ripe apple. The flavour delivers a rich, spicy leather note overlaid with satsuma and red ripe apple, finished with an autumnal orchard creamy fizz. A superb match for roast pork. Alc. 5.3% vol.

750ml wired cork bottle from Fine Cider Co. Opened with a pop. Hazed orangey golden colour, short-lived white foam head and aroma of apple, fruit, leather, funk. Taste is sweetish, appley, fruity, orchardy, citric, with barnyard, leathery funk and earthy drying bittersweet tannins. Medium bodied, light soft carbonation, dry funky tannic finish. Very drinkable.
